about
The Crow Women are among 19 bands who have contributed a song to the pro-choice compilation The Red Album: Pagan Voices for Reproductive Rights. When asked about their song, How Dare You! they said; “We are both a pagan band and a feminist Wiccan coven. We wanted to express our grief and outrage at the loss of reproductive choice, and give voice to the Goddess as she pours out comfort and strength to support us in working to regain our rights.”
lyrics
Soloist 1:
He put something in my drink,
Forced himself on me that night.
I was helpless, could not think,
Can’t you see?
Now I’m pregnant, not my choice.
All my future options gone.
Goddess, hear my desperate voice,
Answer me!
Voice of the Goddess:
Oh my daughter, you are mine
You hold my endless strength inside
You can never be denied
Duet: We will walk this path as one
Soloist 2:
Mary Alice was my friend,
In the days of Eisenhower.
Why so sad at summer’s end?
Mary cried.
“Pregnant, oh no, it can’t be! (voice of Mary)
Can’t destroy my family”
Paid someone to set her free.
But, Mary died.
The Goddess:
Oh my daughter, you are mine
You hold my endless strength inside
You can never be denied
Duet: We will walk this path as one
All: How dare you try to challenge the Goddess
Goddess: I am birth, I am death, I am mysteries untold
All: How dare you try to limit the Goddess
Goddess: I am choice far beyond what governments control
All: How dare you try to hinder her power
Goddess: I gave it to my daughters, it’s the right to rule their lives
All: How dare you wreak this harm on her children
Goddess: The bodies you’ve betrayed are not yours, they are mine
All, spoken, overlapping: How dare you!
Choir of 6 singers:
When they struck down Roe v Wade
I was in a state of shock
Never thought I’d see this day.
Choice is gone
Women worked hard for this right
Now we deal with shame and fear
Goddess, help us in this fight
Keep us strong
Rights we’d had were jerked away
By those who’ll never pay the price
Hear the voice of women’s rage
Right this wrong
The Goddess:
Oh my daughters, you are mine
You hold my endless strength inside
You can never be denied
All: We will walk this path as one
Final Chorus: all, including the Goddess
How dare you try to challenge the Goddess
I am birth, I am death, I am mysteries untold
How dare you try to limit the Goddess
I am choice far beyond what governments control
How dare you try to hinder my power
I gave it to my daughters, it’s the right to rule their lives
How dare you wreak this harm on my children
The bodies you’ve betrayed are not yours, they are mine.
All, shouted: How dare you!

A silky, smooth, sultry voice weaving lyrical imagery upon a canvas of exquisite tonal contours. Immensely pleasurable. The bouncy cheer of " Little Bird" is a delightful contrast to the dusky jazz groove of this truly beautiful album. Much gratitude for you S J ! roddylloyd

Alexander James Adams "The Blue Rose Rare and Other Faerie Tales" is an excellent album. With songs retelling a variety of myths and faerie tales, each song is both very fun to listen to, fits well together as an album, and is distinct from the rest of the album. Brownie Dan especially stuck out to me, both in terms of just being a really fun song musically and in terms of the lyrics being delightful.
Definitely worth a listen, and thank you for a wonderful album. Kamani
